Riboflavin permease of the yeast Pichia guilliermondii appear to be inducible transport system. Its synthesis is induced by sucrose, maltose, alpha-methyl-D-glocoside, melizitose and raffinose, but not by D-glucose, trehalose or cellobiose. The synthesis of riboflavin permease in the presence of sucrose of maltose is depressed by cycloheximide, actinomycin D and 8-hydroxyquinoline. These results suggest that the synthesis of riboflavin permease is regulated on the transcription level. The inducers of riboflavin permease are also able to induce the synthesis of alpha-glucosidase. The mutants have been selected in which the synthesis of riboflavin permease occurs constitutively; the synthesis of alpha-glucosidase in the mutants is also constitutive. Growing of the yeast in a medium with high content of glucose results in a parallel decrease of the riboflavin permease and alpha -- glucosidase activities. These data are indicative of corrdinate regulation of riboflavin permease and alpha -- glucosidase in P. guilliermondii. Suboptimal or excessive content of vitamin B2 in the medium does not affect the level of riboflavin permease in this yeast species.

D002241 Carbohydrates A class of organic compounds composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen in a ratio of Cn(H2O)n. The largest class of organic compounds, including STARCH; GLYCOGEN; CELLULOSE; POLYSACCHARIDES; and simple MONOSACCHARIDES. Carbohydrate
D003513 Cycloheximide Antibiotic substance isolated from streptomycin-producing strains of Streptomyces griseus. It acts by inhibiting elongation during protein synthesis. Actidione,Cicloheximide
D003609 Dactinomycin A compound composed of a two CYCLIC PEPTIDES attached to a phenoxazine that is derived from STREPTOMYCES parvullus. It binds to DNA and inhibits RNA synthesis (transcription), with chain elongation more sensitive than initiation, termination, or release. As a result of impaired mRNA production, protein synthesis also declines after dactinomycin therapy.
